| Collapse all
- My faith is what defines my politics not the other way around. I am a devout Catholic and the Church guides my decisions, not any worldly party or material gains such as money. The only promise I have been running on is that my decision making will never be comprised by outside interests because my faith guides me. Unlike other politicians who make more promises than they can keep. When I go to Madison I will change Madison and Madison will not change me. An uncompromisable voting record will reflect my devotion to God. Likewise, this presents the sheer determination and passion I have to represent the people of Wisconsin. Honest politicians do not get rich and I intend to be an honest politician.
- Secondary institutions are not preparing younger generations to become the leaders of tomorrow. As a current UW student I see it firsthand. The climate of college campuses is overwhelmingly liberal and oftentimes students leave the university with a degree that largely they will not use in their careers. Furthermore, they leave so much debt that they aren't financially secure either. Another issue is that enrollment is dropping statewide at many UW Institutions. Everything considered the current state of the UW System is troubling and without effective education it is hard to foresee how the torch can be confidently passed on to my generation. I will hold the UW System accountable.
- I love America and more importantly the great state of Wisconsin. I want to preserve its long-lasting traditions and make Wisconsin the most attractive and prosperous state in the Midwest. I am a staunch supporter of policy that promote America First principles in accordance with President Donald Trump who has my firm support. Likewise the concern of election integrity has never been more pressing so integrity must be retained at all cost and objective rules enforced to achieve that.
